I would vote for the TVS! I've just seen a lot more reports of work and problems with turbos. There cool but I would prefer the reliability of a magnacharger. I see no reason you can't get into the 13's with one as long as you have traction.

Don't take this the wrong way, but you sound very uninformed at this point. You're just setting yourself up for disappointment if you plan to go with a turbo setup. I even consider myself to be very mechanically inclined and my turbo build has me nervous. If you do it right, it can be as reliable as a supercharger setup, but it's much easier to build a cheap turbo kit and that's where people run into problems.
